Spent the day brewing a Blackberry Pale Ale only to shatter the carboy when transferring it to the closet. Our bathroom still smells like skunky hops from time to time.What is your favorite style(s) to brew? All of them, but since my wife is a hophead, we always have an IPA keg in the keezer.What style(s) will you never brew? LagerWhat was the first beer you ever brewed? How did it turn out? A Vanilla Bourbon Stout, it turned out amazing. Have you ever had a homebrew mistake that turned out great? I would never admit it was a mistake if it turned out great. What is your favorite beer recipe? I am trying to perfect a Citra and Galaxy hopped IPA recipe. My wife and I brewed one for our wedding and it was the best IPA we have ever brewed.Are you a BJCP Judge? If so, what is your rank and how long have you been judging? No, I am not, but I am interested in becoming one.Do you have a good beer judging story you'd like to share with the rest of the homebrewing world? NoDo you have a favorite homebrew trick or gadget that you've found to make your beer better/brewing easier, etc? We use a hop bag(5 gallon paint strainer bag mounted on a PVC base) for extensively hopped beers. It greatly speeds up the transfer from the boil kettle to the fermenter.Describe your brew system. 48 Quart Coleman Extreme Cooler with CPVC manifold. 7 gallon turkey fryer setup for boil. 6 gallon carboys.How frequently do you brew (times/month or /year)? Used to brew every two weeks or so when we were bottling, now it is more like once a month.What is your favorite malt? Why? Maris Otter. I think it provides a better body than two-row.

Galaxy I love the passionfruit notes it provides when used as a late addition/dry hopDo you have a favorite or house yeast? What qualities do you like about that yeast? WLP300 My favorite style of beer to brew in the summer is a good German Hefeweizen.

Starting last year, we participated in the Brightleaf Brewfest in Danville, VA. We were able to talk to people about the hobby we love and we were able to give out 2 ounce samples of our homebrew. It was a great experience to see the reaction from people that had no clue what you could brew at home. We will be doing it again this November.What haven't we asked that you would really like to answer? I am a proud Virginia Tech graduate. Go Hokies!If you could serve your homebrew to someone famous, who would it be and what would you give her/him?Ric Flair, it doesn't matter what beer it is, I just want him to drink it and then yell out his trademark WHOO!Can you send a picture or two of some labels you've created for your homebrew?
